MLB The Show 21 leak confirms cover athlete and Xbox release
Back in late 2019 MLB and Sony announced that the MLB The Show series would be going multi-platform in 2021. While details were scarce then and nothing new has been provided in the over 13 months since, the expectation has been that MLB The Show 21 would be making its debut on Xbox.

Next-gen FIFA 21 available now for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X
FIFA 21 has gone live a full day early with the next-gen version on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. Unfortunately the process to download it for those who already own the PS4/Xbox One versions (and get the upgrade for free) isn't quite as simple as one would hope.
